To all whom 'it may concern:

Beit known that I, GEORGE HOTTE, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and improved Heater for Coffee-Kettles and other 'Vesselsg and-,I do hereby declare the following to be a full', clear,and exactdescription thereof, which will enable those skilled in the art .to make and usethe same', reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming part of this spec-iiication, in which drawmg- Figure 1 represents a vertical central section of this invention.

Figure 2 is a transverse section of the same.

Similar letters indicate corresponding parts.

This invention consists in'fthe arrangement of a platform, which forms the top of an ash-pan, and the -support for a cylindrical iirefpot, provided at its bot- .tom with a fire-grate, in .combination with a vessel, -fiirnished with a tube, extending 'up through its entire height, and" capable ot' surrounding the cylindrical tirepot 'of the heater, in such a manner, that by filling said tire-pot wit-hfuel, and igniting the same, the contents of thevessel placed On the platform of the heater, and over the {Vire-pot, are rapidly and convenient-ly heated.

Theletter A designates a platform, which forms the top ofthe ash-pan B, and from which rises the cylindrical fire-pot O.

This fire-pot is provided with a grate, D, and the ash-pan B is furnished with a door, and with suitable air-holes, so that the air has free access to the grate and fire-pot.

, The vessel E, which I use in connection with Vmy heater, is provided with atube, F, extending up through its Yentire height, and suciently large to embrace the cylindrical fire-pot, so'that said vessel can be placed upon the platform A, as shown in g. 1, of the drawing.

The vessel E is provided with a cover, G, and the order to extinguislnthe fire in the tire-pot, the cover H is put on, and the tire is smothered.

, By these means, the contentsof a coiee or teapot, v or of any other vessel, can be rapidly and convenient] y j heated, with a comparatively small expenditure of fuel, and without producing a disagreeable odor in the room 'in which the heater is used.

Vhat I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent,v is-' Theplatform A, forming the top of the ash-pan B and the support for the lire-pot (l, in combination with a vessel, provided with an internal tube, F, fitting over the fire-pot G, substantially as shown and described.
